On the front suspension of my B body I found two types of castle nuts (as shown on photo).
I don‘t recall where the factory used the left type castle nut and the right.
And what was the reason or difference for each type?
I know new ones come with Moog parts but just want to know it.
What are the correct colors for paint inspection marks on these front suspension nuts? For year 1968.
There was more than one color I remember but after 50 years of old grime and dirt they were barely visible for me or discolored.
And why the paint markings? Didn‘t the cottar pin alone provide enough information to say visible “part is torqued to final specs“ at the assembly line? Feels redundant to me.
